Punished by those we do not desire.
(Part 2) *Matts pov*
Last sentence That night Tekeru lay in my arms while I told him a story, just then my dad walked into my room his fists clenched.
"Daddy!" smiled Tekeru as I pulled him closer. I could tell that dad was drunk and angry. "I JUST GOT A CALL FROM TAICHI'S MOTHER!!!!!!". I shuddered remembering Taichi.
"IF YOU LIKE FIGHTING SO MUCH THEN FIGHT ME YOU LITTLE PUNK!!!!!!!!!" shouted my dad. Tekeru clung on to me but I had to put him aside before he got involved. Dad picked up a draw from my chest-of-drawers and smashed it over my back. Tekeru burst into tears and ran to me. "Don't hurt him dad please!" Tekeru pleaded. Dad turned me on my back and punched me in the stomach. "Yamato!!!" Dad turned to Tekeru, threw him on the ground then hit him in the face with the back part of a chef's knife. Tekeru lay on the ground crying like I've never seen him cry before. Dad walked out to go sober, slamming the door behind him. Tears of blood ran down my cheeks as I glanced over at Tekeru, he was crying like I've never seen him cry before, his face had a dark red bruise that made me want to throw up. I managed to slide over to Tekeru and rock him gently in my arms. I reached for my harmonica and played 'little brightness'. Tekeru's favourite song, even though my body was thrashed.
A few minuets later Tekeru stoped crying and fell asleep, I lay him on my bed and undressed, then headed for the shower. Water ran down my body stinging the wound and causing me to move a lot. I came out and put a towel around my waste and chest. I glanced over at the door, Tekeru as standing there staring at me in horror. " why didn't you tell anyone Matt?" asked Tekeru quietly. He never called me Matt, only when he was absolutely frightened or upset. " Dad said he would hurt you and Mom if I told anyone,... please don't tell anyone Tekeru, please!". I pleaded. "I love you Yamato!". Replied Tekeru.
The next day Dad told us to go to the bank and hand in a check for him. We left at 3:15pm and walked to the bank, I couldn't help but stare at where Dad had hit Tekeru. Tekeru just babbled on about nothing in particular, trying to sound happy but I knew deep down he was afraid to go back. We entered the bank and were about to hand in the check when a guy with a black mask and gun entered yelling! "THIS IS A HOLDUP EVERY ONE GET DOWN OR I'LL SHOOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
To be continued.............
Another cliff hanger, you must hate me for these. Please review.
